I don't really understand why, I'm sure they have their reasons, but I really don't care either way. Why would I? It's not like I can read Japanese anyway .

This. Sucks for the few people that actually do have a real use for region-free consoles (aka play Japanese games we will never get in the west), but 99.9% would never use it anyways.

You guys have a lot of trust in NoA not to fuck up again and do an Operation Rainfall scenario.  I'd much rather have the option in case they decide to not bring some random game again that NoE already has translated and localized in English.
